Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #526 (1890) First Line: Oh, that the Lord's salvation Lyrics: 1 Oh, that the Lord's salvation
Were out of Zion come,
To heal his ancient nation,
To lead his outcasts home!
How long the holy city
Shall heathen feet profane?
Return, O Lord, in pity,
Rebuild her walls again.
2 Let fall thy rod of terror,
Thy saving grace impart;
Roll back the vail of error,
Release the fettered heart;
Let Israel, home returning,
Their lost Messiah see;
Give oil of joy for mourning,
And bind thy Church to thee. Topics: Missions and Growth; Church Missions of; Church Triumph of; Missions; Church Missions of; Church Triumph of; Missions Languages: English
